One of the reasons I can write about the immigration of the Irish to America was the preservation of that history through music. Comhaltus (pronounced coal-tus) is an organization devoted to the preservation and promotion of Irish traditional music. We are sponsoring an immigration conversation on Sunday afternoon April 7th at 2pm at the Hillsdale Public Library 1525 SW Sunset Blvd, Portland, OR 97239. We are going to share how we remember and honor our past and what that past might call us to in the future. Everyone is welcome to come and listen and share as they feel comfortable. Immigration touches us all. There will be refreshments and music.
